Fermentative profile and bacterial community structure of whole-plant triticale silage () with or without the addition of and .

This study aimed to investigate the effects of and on the chemical composition, fermentation characteristics, bacterial communities, and predicted metabolic pathways of whole-plant triticale silage (). Fresh triticale harvested at the milk stage was ensiled in sterile distilled water (CON), (ST), (LP), and a combination of and (LS) for 3, 7, 15, and 30 days. During ensiling, the pH and water-soluble carbohydrate (WSC) content in the inoculated groups was significantly lower than those in the CON group ( < 0.

Hard template-salt template double template preparation of heteroatom-doped hierarchical porous carbon and its electrochemical properties.

Heteroatom-doped hierarchical porous carbon (AF-MMTC) was prepared with hard template and salt template dual templating agents, and the effects of salt template additions on its micro-morphology, pore structure, specific surface area and electrochemical properties were investigated. The salt template not only acts as a template, but also plays the role of a pore-making agent. AF-MMTC5 has a high specific surface area of 1772 m g, a 41% microporous content and 1.

Methyl-dependent auto-regulation of the DNA N6-adenine methyltransferase AMT1 in the unicellular eukaryote Tetrahymena thermophila.

DNA N6-methyladenine (6mA) is a potential epigenetic mark involved in gene transcription in eukaryotes, yet the regulatory mechanism governing its methyltransferase (MTase) activity remains obscure. Here, we exploited the 6mA MTase AMT1 to elucidate its auto-regulation in the unicellular eukaryote Tetrahymena thermophila. The detailed endogenous localization of AMT1 in vegetative and sexual stages revealed a correlation between the 6mA reestablishment in the new MAC and the occurrence of zygotically expressed AMT1.

A review of electrospun metal oxide semiconductor-based photocatalysts.

In recent years, photocatalytic materials with a nanofiber-like morphology have garnered a surge of academic attention due to their distinctive properties, including an expansive specific surface area, a considerable high aspect ratio, a pronounced resistance to agglomeration, superior electron survivability, and robust surface activity. Consequently, the synthesis of photocatalytic nanofiber materials through various methodologies has drawn considerable attention. The electrospinning technique has been established as a prevalent method for fabricating nanofiber-structured materials, owing to its advantageous properties, including the ability for mass production and the assurance of high continuity.
